V = air or gas volume of the closed space or room in cubic feet, cubic metres or litres; Q = ventilation rate into or out of the room in cubic feet per minute, cubic metres per hour or litres per second; C initial = initial concentration of a vapor inside the room measured in ppm; C final = final reduced concentration of the vapor inside the ...
Latent heat is associated with the change of phase of atmospheric or ocean water, vaporization, condensation, freezing or melting, whereas sensible heat is energy transferred that is evident in change of the temperature of the atmosphere or ocean, or ice, without those phase changes, though it is associated with changes of pressure and volume.
The table of specific heat capacities gives the volumetric heat capacity as well as the specific heat capacity of some substances and engineering materials, and (when applicable) the molar heat capacity. Generally, the most notable constant parameter is the volumetric heat capacity (at least for solids) which is around the value of 3 megajoule ...
The value of 615 ppm above the outdoor concentration indicates approximately 15 cubic feet per minute of outdoor air per adult occupant doing sedentary office work where outdoor air contains over 400 ppm [118] (global average as of 2023). In classrooms, the requirements in the ASHRAE standard 62.1, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality ...
Correcting concentrations for altitude. Air pollutant concentrations expressed as mass per unit volume of atmospheric air (e.g., mg/m 3, μg/m 3, etc.) at sea level will decrease with increasing altitude. The concentration decrease is directly proportional to the pressure decrease with increasing altitude.
In engineering, airflow is a measurement of the amount of air per unit of time that flows through a particular device. It can be described as a volumetric flow rate (volume of air per unit time) or a mass flow rate (mass of air per unit time). What relates both forms of description is the air density, which is a function of pressure and ...
Enthalpy (/ ˈ ɛ n θ əl p i / ⓘ) is the sum of a thermodynamic system's internal energy and the product of its pressure and volume. [1] It is a state function in thermodynamics used in many measurements in chemical, biological, and physical systems at a constant external pressure, which is conveniently provided by the large ambient atmosphere.
Thermodynamics. In thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, the compressibility (also known as the coefficient of compressibility[1] or, if the temperature is held constant, the isothermal compressibility[2]) is a measure of the instantaneous relative volume change of a fluid or solid as a response to a pressure (or mean stress) change.
